"Previously we were regular diners art the clones to the pandemic. as oaps we feel a bit safer to dare so we decided to celebrate our high-time day there last week. we were aware that there has been a change in management in the pub lately. the service and eating were excellent at previous visits. I booked a table for a weekend slot. when we arrived, we should have been warned of a little dislike, because in contrast to other nearby facilities the parking was almost empty. When we came in, we found that there were only a few. (although the time when we were there, the total number of customers, including us, only ten total.) we have only announced our arrival to say that there are no records about our booking. the girl that met us then asked if we had booked under another name – what we had not. another employee member was called who asked the same question again. even after the email confirmation, the staff still murmured that there must be a mistake – and make it harder that it was our mistake! as well, with an almost empty pub restaurant, I cannot see why it would be a problem to find a table for two. we sat. we ordered a wine and a soft drink. the drinks only arrived after the appetizers. In the meantime, another group of four had arrived. I heard they complained about the long waiting period until you were ordered. when the starter finally arrived, the man in the party only commented on the slow service to work from the waitress who, aggressively, according to my opinion, said that they work with two employees. safe, even with two employees, they could handle only ten customers in total. the menu at the crown has changed slightly since the pre-covid and my favorite starter is no longer included. our other food was in order, but the service was appalling. I think everyone who cares in this night would agree. we will not come back until we know that there is a shaker-up of service and keeping of the personal that is a candid, as before covid we probably dinate there, and entertain friends there, at least once in the month."
